In Norwegian traffic signs and road markings (Skiltforskriften), what does it mean when a police officer directing traffic stands facing you with arms extended sideways?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Stop (red light equivalent) for chest and back

  1. Step 1: An officer directing traffic with arms outstretched represents a red signal to traffic facing their chest or back, and green to traffic approaching from the sides. Answer: Stop (red light equivalent) for chest and back. Why not the others: the alternative options do not correctly describe the statutory meaning under the Norwegian Sign Regulations (Skiltforskriften).
